Wow corner of your eyes bled though? I really wish I would have read these reviews before I purchased and started my treatment. 2 days in and I am no longer using. My skin is dry and sensitive along with very small liquid looking white heads above my top lip between my nose and lip and chin. Never again. I hope your okay now.

Class action suit sounds good. We should look into it plus yes I plan on getting my money back too. Stupid me used it without reading reviews and now I'm stuck with little white blisters rash on my neck and dry and sensitive skin. Want to throw it all away but I'd like my money back. Hope you're feeling better.

I'm really sorry this happened to you! I went through the same thing! The burning really bothered me and it itches but when I itched it I was tempted to itch more. I had red rashes all over my face and I didn't wanna go anywhere but I'm finishing up school this year so I was forced to! I just put loads of foundation to cover it it! I hope your doing better

The wash made my face red and splotchy. The moisturizer made my skin greasy and looked like I'd poured hot oil on my face. Will never use again. I can't be dry and burnt.

I googled to see if I was the only one who got a reaction from Proative, but it seems I haven't. When my mum bought this product for me I was sooo excited. I used it for time and everything went ok and second time. It wasn't until the third time using I put the stuff on my skin and it started stinging like hell, being the stupid person I am, I forgot about it the next day and put it on my skin again (it hurt like hell burning my skin) I looked in the mirror after about an hour and there were redness all over my cheeks and chin. Now my face is extremely itchy and is very dry with pieces of skin coming off my face.
I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one with these problems.

I have just used proactive. The repairing soloution. I'm 15, my older sister got it for me and I used it yesterday it worked fine. I just put some on again now and then brushed my teeth. I accidentally put on a bit more than I think I should of and my whole face is swelling and red and it burns. I washed the proactive off and am applying a cold cloth to my face. It still burns. But it felt so bad it hurt like crazy and I felt like I was on fire ... this happened in all of 10 minutes and I'm still burning.

I used proactive about a year ago and other than it being slightly expensive I loved it. I just started using it again about a day or So ago and noticed that at work the next morning. (Washed my face that evening) my face seemed really dry or my cheeks and around eyes. Throughout the day it seemed to be getting worse so I put a little hydrocortisone on and went on about my day. By that evening my eye lids were swollen. I took two benadryl hoping that would help. I just woke up this morning and my eyes are almost swollen shut! I don't know if it was the proactive itself or the sample of the purifying mask they sent in the package and I tried or of it was the aloe moisturizer that I used after all 3 steps. It could have been a combination of all. Maybe too much too fast or one thing in perticular. I really don't know, but Either way I'm freaked out and I'm sending this back! I'll stick to washing my face with Dove or Caress soap!

Same here! My face is so itchy this morning and patchy. My eyes are so swollen. I called and my doctor said to use Benadryl but this product has not done this to me in the past.

Hey, I used to use proactive a year ago and had no reaction but I started using it again and after a day my eyes began to become really itchy and after a few days they were swollen on my lids not completely shut just swollen and its been a week and I'm getting really itchy rashes one on my face and on my arm and hand... it began when i started using proactive and tbh it is really helping with my acne but this is really annoying.. i don't know if they had added a new chemical or something I could be allergic to but if someone can help me with this I would greatly appreciate it.
